1988 Bobcat Road, Fordland, MO 65652 (MLS# 60169095)

Wonderful home with unbelievable setting in the Rogersville School District. Built in 1984, the original house had only one bedroom with a total of 1,502 square feet. The current owners purchased the home in 1992 realizing that the house could be changed, but the opportunity to own this special property would come along only once-in-a-lifetime. Extensive remodel transformed the original modest house into a wonderful timber-frame home. The two-story, 3741 square-foot home includes 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, kitchen with custom cabinets and updated appliances, dining area, great room, family room, utility room, Finland sauna, bonus room for crafts, workshop or storage. Home is all electric and utilizes loads of south facing windows producing passive solar. In addition, a ducted wood-burning fireplace can be used for energy flexibility and reduced energy costs. The Great Room is a focal point in the home featuring hardwood floors, two sitting areas, dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, and beautiful timber-frame trusses. View from the expansive Great Room windows is fantastic, overlooking the wildflower meadow and lake. The one-acre stocked lake is 13 feet deep and very clear. Sitting at the edge of the lake is a one-of-a-kind timber frame boat house. It features a gorgeous solid oak floor, cabinets, wood fireplace, screened windows, electricity and water. A one-acre native wildflower meadow borders the backyard. The property is a nature lovers paradise! Property also includes a versatile barn, apple orchard, fenced garden, security gate and many extras.
